We met some very nice ducks and geese. There were some model boaters out in the morning which my son was super excited about! The walk is very nice, lots of folks fishing, and we got to see a great blue heron! My son was very excited about all of the wildlife he got to see, and was sad that none of the gopher snakes made a guest appearance. I guess we'll have to come back! A really nice walk after the strenuous hike we had done the day before. We will be back!

I love this place for walks. it's super shaded in most parts. just a precaution for woman to come with a partner, a woman walking the trail was recently dragged into one of the bushes by a man and was raped. so never come alone.

this place is gem. the animals will come right up to you without any fear. it's great if your not use to the attention. lot of variety. plenty of restrooms and drinking fountins. also you can have BBQs. there are plenty of fire pits to do your cooking.
